🏆 Your #1 Takeaway

How should I position myself and my partner after serving in Padel?

Stand in the appropriate starting position for the chosen formation (normal or Australian) and move immediately towards the net position, covering your designated half of the court based on the serve direction and formation.

What Your Guru Thinks

This covers essential concepts for starting the point effectively. Coach Sandy explains the standard formations, normal and Australian, and clarifies where you should be standing and moving after your serve. Understanding your initial positioning and immediate movement is crucial for getting to the net effectively and setting up the rest of the point.
